A Causal Language Modeling Detour Improves Encoder Continued Pretraining

Rian Touchent, Eric de la Clergerie

When adapting an encoder to a new domain, the standard approach is to continue training with Masked Language Modeling (MLM). We show that temporarily switching to Causal Language M…

CamemBERT-bio: Leveraging Continual Pre-training for Cost-Effective Models on French Biomedical Data

Rian Touchent, Laurent Romary, Eric de la Clergerie

Clinical data in hospitals are increasingly accessible for research through clinical data warehouses. However these documents are unstructured and it is therefore necessary to extr…
